I've just recently purchased the Dictionary of Kings & Queens of Britain, which is a decent sized mini encylopedia on this countries rulers stretching back to a couple centries BC and also including a chapter on unproven or mythical figures such as Arthur, Lear and Cole.
There are short paragraphs for pre-conquest Kings, a good page or two for each ruler, more for particularly prominent ones like William the Conqueror, Henry VII, Queen Victoria etc etc.
It prompted me to wonder if a similar such work exists in regards to the Presidents of Colombia from Simon Bolivar to present. Whilst I doubt such a copy would have an English translation, does anyone know of a good such reference book like that in Spanish?
